I just received big box full of Basicks' products, so there should be plenty of reviews of their stuff on the blog in the near future. Basicks is a young Polish company producing miniatures, terrain, miniatures and wargaming accessories, but its owner is really experienced, as he is former co-owner of Micro Art Studio.

Bases are packed in clear plastic blisters with cardboard backside. Both parts of the blister aren't glued together - cardboard backside slips inside plastic folded edges instead. Casts are additionally protected by a piece of foam. Resin is different between my samples, having light and dark grey color. I suspected that this difference may affect hardness and fragility of the resin, but after scratching both bases undersides with a knife blade, I can't see any difference.

Casts are of very nice quality - I couldn't see any holes, missing or broke fragments, warped parts, etc. All details are very sharp, with clearly defined edges. The only objection I have is about slightly different cavalry base sizes. Some of them were a little shorter then 25 mm (1 - 2 mm). I suspect that this is due to different amount of pure resin being used, as the differences were noticable on the heaviest and lightest of the bases. All bases come with totally flat, sanded lower surface. It is very hard or maybe even impossible to make a hollow space in resin casted in vacuum moulds, so sanding of bases is necessary. Fortunately producer took care of that in this case. Sides of all bases are totally plain - with no imperfections due to shrinking of resin.

As the name of the range suggests, all bases are full of details with appropriate cementary flavour. We can clearly see broken coffins lids, broken gravestones and headstones, some fallen crosses, skulls, piles of bones, etc. Everything is overgrown with moss and halfburied in the ground. I hope all details are visible on the photos attached, additionally there is one photos showing painted 50 mm square base, taken from the Basicks website, to show all little nuances. I think that painting the bases will be both easy and pleasant, as the details are so clear. Ground itself is really nice too, as it has texture which should be easy to show with light drybrush.

Summary: all these sets are standard priced and contain standard, for wargamers, number of bases. But for this standard price we receive product of highest quality. I especially like crispness and quality of detailing.
